Just thought I'd stick my nose in here and add a comment. Last year going
to the IOLI convention in Denver, I rode the bus with Lia B.(at the moment
can't think of how to spell her name). and she told me of a very neat idea
of how to have more than one pillow at a time but actually only have one
pillow. You go to the sporting goods section of a store where they sell
this blue foam material to put under your sleeping bag when camping.. It's
maybe about 1/2 " thick. Cut circles of it the size of your pillow. Pin
one piece of it down to the top of your pillow, place your pricking on it
and work away. When it comes time for your next class you lift this piece
off and place a new one on and work on the next project. Your pins are kept
in place and you only need carry one pillow with you. I've tried it and it
works very well. You only need one main pillow and have lots of tops for
it.
I found a roll of it at Wal-Mart in the USA and was able to get four large
circles cut from it.

Subject: [lace] free pillows
I am guilty that every time my friends and I went on a lace course, I
never
had a free pillow, there was always something on the go that I did not
want
to cut off, so I would buy another pillow!!! <Vbg>
Usually I don't cut off projects when in need of a pillow. I just pull the
project from the pillow but keep the pins in the pricking. When reseuming
the work I repin the project. Requires less storage than complete pillows
and I allways have a demo-project at hand whenever something pops up.
